Tilt-Shifted Chicago Looks Teeny-Tiny [Video]

This may look like an overly elaborate HO-scale model in some German museum somewhere, but it’s actually the city of Chicago filmed with the tilt-shift photographic technique. The end result is a bustling metropolis reduced to what appear to be tiny people in a busy little world.

Now, Chicago and New York are often compared because of their size, grandeur, opinions about pizza, etc.. Fortunately for the sake of arguing, we can now compare the two cities based on their tilt-shift videos. Which truly is fortunate, because the inherent superiority of Chicago deepdish is something that I don’t feel needs to be rehashed.
